सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Russian offices, it is common to shake hands with male colleagues while saying 'Доброе утро', but usually not with female colleagues unless they initiate. In countries like Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, 'Доброе утро' remains a lingua franca in business settings, though local equivalents are also used. On apps like WhatsApp, older generations often send 'открытки' (digital cards) with flowers and the text 'Доброе утро!' to all their contacts. Waiters and shopkeepers might not always smile, but they will almost always respond to a 'Доброе утро'—it is considered the baseline of 'культурный' (cultured) behavior.
